Chapter 90: Falling off the Cliff

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chen Feng felt like a bird with broken wings.

He rapidly fell from the edge of the cliff into the bottomless dark abyss.

Chen Feng fell into the black fog. He immediately felt a sharp pain all over his body. It felt as if his skin was burning.

Chen Feng knew that the pain was caused by the corrosive effect of the black gas.

Immediately after, Chen Feng heard a system notification.

“SSS-rank talent [Omnipotent Adaptation] has taken effect, obtained Elementary Corrosion Resistance!”

“SSS-rank talent [Omnipotent Adaptation] has taken effect, obtained Intermediate Corrosion Resistance!”

After a second, the voice rang out once again.

“SSS-rank talent [Omnipotent Adaptation] has taken effect, obtained High Corrosion Resistance!”

Three consecutive notifications rang out in Chen Feng’s ears.

The effect of [Omnipotent Adaptation] could only be unleashed in a dangerous environment.

At that moment, Chen Feng’s resistance to corrosion had been raised to a high level. One could imagine just how terrifying the corrosive effects of the black mist was.

Even so, Chen Feng could not completely avoid the corrosion caused by the black fog in all directions.

He felt like his body was burning.

His body stung! He felt extreme pain!

It was as if every inch of his body had been splashed with concentrated sulfuric acid.

“I have to think of a way to land safely!”

Chen Feng narrowed his eyes. He looked down and realized that there was a bottomless abyss beneath him. It looked like a huge black mouth that was about to swallow him.

The corrosion on his body was not enough to kill him. He could just endure it for a while.

However, falling from such high heights was no joke.

Chen Feng attempted to use a Summoning Spell to summon Pegasus Pagasos, but he failed.

Ever since entering this abyss, or even before entering this abyss, he discovered that he could no longer use his magical and mental powers.

He could not cast a Flash Spell or Summoning Spell.

Four seconds had already passed, but Chen Feng was yet to land on the ground.

He could not even see the bottom of the abyss.

“I’m falling too quickly now. I have to find a way to slow myself down. If I crash down at such a high speed, I’ll definitely die.”

Chen Feng frowned.

At that moment, he had lost his magical and mental powers. To a certain extent, he could no longer be considered an Awakened One. He was just like an ordinary person with some talents right now.

And his talent…

He could not activate the [Synthesis of All Things], [Overgod Contract], [Element Affinity] or [Upgrade Alone].

[Omnipotent Adaptation] had taken effect, but it could only increase his resistance to corrosion.

It would not save him from the impact caused by the fall.

In other words, Chen Feng could only rely on one talent right now—

[Lucky Halo]!

“The Goddess of Luck is protecting me!”

Chen Feng said in a low voice as he took out a long rope from his backpack. He tied a knot on the end of the rope and threw it out.

“If I’m really lucky…”

Before Chen Feng could finish speaking, he felt a powerful force from the other end of the rope.

“As expected!”

Chen Feng’s eyes lit up.

His guess was right. The more desperate the situation was, the stronger the effect of the [Lucky Halo].

He could survive with luck!

In such a high-speed descent, it was almost impossible to hook a rope onto a rock protrusion on the wall.

However, that might not be the case since Chen Feng had the [Lucky Halo].

One’s luck would be called a miracle when it reached a certain level!

Chen Feng, who had the [Lucky Halo], naturally believed in miracles.

Those who believed that miracles would happen were as great as miracles!

Under the pull of this huge force, Chen Feng felt intense pain due to the friction between his palm and the rope. Although he was still falling, his speed had greatly decreased.

If he remained in this state, he would definitely slow down.

But now…

Click!

A crisp sound rang out.

The sound was exceptionally clear in this deep and quiet abyss. The sound came from the rock that Chen Feng had hooked onto with his rope. It had broken!

“Crap, are you done yet!?”

Chen Feng could not help but curse.

It looks like even the Goddess of Luck could no longer protect him in this hellish abyss.

Bang!

Another crisp sound rang out as Chen Feng fell into a thorny tree.

The tree grew on the vertical cliff. It blocked Chen Feng’s fall. It also became a tool that helped him to slow down his speed of descent.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

After breaking three thick branches, Chen Feng finally slowed down. Chen Feng grabbed another branch when he passed by it.

His body swayed a few times in the air before finally stopping.

“That was close!”

Chen Feng broke out in a cold sweat. He was currently suspended mid-air.

Chen Feng lowered his head to look below him. He could already see the bottom of the abyss. It was around three to four hundred meters beneath him.

If not for this thorny tree, Chen Feng would definitely have died if he fell down!

“What just happened?”

Even till now, Chen Feng still did not understand how he had fallen into the abyss.

Of course, he would not have slipped.

Before he fell, he seemed to remember clearly…

Someone’s hand had pressed on his shoulder.

After that, a tremendous force had pushed him down. He did not even have time to resist the force.

So…

Who pushed him?

Chen Feng’s pupils suddenly trembled. There were only three other people present when they stopped at the edge of the cliff. That included Park Yunmo, Sakurai Longzi, and Blake.

Could one of them have tried to kill him?

As he thought of it, Chen Feng felt even more terrified.

Pu Yunmo and Sakurai Longzi were companions that he had been with for about a month. They had experienced more than one dungeon expedition together.

On the other hand, Blake had just joined the team.

However, this strong man, who had remained silent throughout the journey, had left a deep impression on Chen Feng. Blake felt extremely reliable to him.

Regardless of whether it was one of the three of them who had pushed him off the cliff…

Chen Feng could not even imagine it!

What a scary thought!

“Forget it, I’ll think of a way to get down first.”

Chen Feng sighed.

He was still hanging from the thorny tree. His life could be in danger at any moment.

Since things had already turned out this way, it was better to find out what was summoning the Godly Tree in this abyss!
